London

On Friday 17th March nearly fifty OSB members and their guests gathered at the RAF Club in Piccadilly for the London Branch Dinner. After drinks in the bar and some time reliving memories that spanned many decades, all enjoyed a sumptuous meal in the elegant surroundings of the President’s Room. The occasion also marked the 50th anniversary of the undefeated season enjoyed by the 1st XV team of 1967 and several members of the side met to celebrate their achievements. 

We were also pleased to welcome Mark George, Chairman of the school Trustees, who, after an introduction from our President, Dacre Watson, described the progress that had been made over the past two years towards re-opening the school (a fact confirmed just two days later). 

Any OSB member who would like to be included on the list for future London events, please drop a line
